In the first one only Sarah Green and Ruth Maddock seem to know what is going on, the others look petrified which I found funny.

I remember watching this when I learnt Paul O'Grady had died. Made me howl with laughter.
Yes I don’t think the song is terrible. She has the voice for it. But all this over Jay?Someone else commented "no-one wants your man. Not even Jolene."
I quite like the song and I expected to hate it.
There's quite a few to watch. They were recommended and I thought they would be dead boring. Wish I'd known, would probably have booked myself a seat in the audience of one or more.In the first one only Sarah Green and Ruth Maddock seem to know what is going on, the others look petrified which I found funny.
Weirdly I’ve watched keeping up appearances on iplayer recentlyYeah, a few years ago BBC did a load of pilot episodes for comedy series, including Young Hyacinth, Kerry Howard playing Hyacinth. But it was really bad.
Everyone wanted to see Young Hyacinth meeting Richard and Onslow and Bruce etc. But it just didn't give any of that. It showed Hyacinth working as a maid in a posh house, where she was getting her airs and graces from. And dating someone who wasn't Richard. It was pretty bad, even if Kerry Howard made a very good IMO young Hyacinth.

You would think she'd have learned from Courtney Cox's mistakes, but sadly no, she's gone from a few discrete tweaks to looking really weird.She does look odd now, she’s tweaked her pretty face so much, the fillers have migrated into the tissues around her mouth and jaw.. and she’s got herself a early Wildenstien look going on now ….
Yes that's Isla Fisher SBC wife, and Jonathan is Jonathan Kerrigan who was in Casualty then Heartbeat when Nick Berry left.There's quite a few to watch. They were recommended and I thought they would be dead boring. Wish I'd known, would probably have booked myself a seat in the audience of one or more.
Who was that Jonathan bloke in the first one?
And is the Isla girl Sacha Baron Cohen's wife?
Must have been filmed pre 1999 as that was when Jill was killed.
I get why you call it a guilty pleasure, but I’m 100% serious when I say that Patricia Routledge is one of the best comedy actors of our time. Not just the voice and delivery, but the physical comedy she brought to that character. Absolute genius of a woman.Keeping up Appearances is a guilty pleasure of mine. The characters and scenarios are very well-drawn.
I love the original and listened to it, willing to give it a go as so many had claimed it was great...and ended up turning it off just over a minute into it.Yeah I get second hand embarrassment for her version of Jolene. Girl, no one wants that Jabba the hut, be real.
I completely agree, she delivers a fully-formed character in KUA, as in so much else she's done.I get why you call it a guilty pleasure, but I’m 100% serious when I say that Patricia Routledge is one of the best comedy actors of our time. Not just the voice and delivery, but the physical comedy she brought to that character. Absolute genius of a woman.

“The characters and scenarios are very well-drawn.”
totally agree!
She's very much a 'change a word, get a third' singer.It’s confusing when people buy into Beyoncé’s lyrics, when she doesn’t even write them.
She is a wonderful actress.I get why you call it a guilty pleasure, but I’m 100% serious when I say that Patricia Routledge is one of the best comedy actors of our time. Not just the voice and delivery, but the physical comedy she brought to that character. Absolute genius of a woman.

I one I don't know is Bob who is next to Sarah Greene, any idea, a local news guy or something ?Yes that's Isla Fisher SBC wife, and Jonathan is Jonathan Kerrigan who was in Casualty then Heartbeat when Nick Berry left.
I don't suppose Lilly made it any easier with all the ad libbing and taking the mick, especially with Liz Dawn.I love those Blankety Blank VTs. They’re hilariously funny but they also give a really good insight into how time consuming it was to shoot a 30 minute quiz show with all the retakes and “pickups”. There are some very strained smiles at certain points amongst the celebs
Ooh I love Hetty Wainthropp investigates. Wish they’d made more episodesShe is a wonderful actress.
I also loved her show Hetty Wainthropp Investigates.
It's Bob Mills I think, comedian who presented Win Lose or Draw and In Bed with MedinnerI one I don't know is Bob who is next to Sarah Greene, any idea, a local news guy or something ?
Thanks. Yes it is, just googled him and still haven't a clue who he is.It's Bob Mills I think, comedian who presented Win Lose or Draw and In Bed with Medinner
